US issues travel alert for Europe

Washington, Nov 17: The US has issued a travel alert for Europe, warning its citizens of the “heightened risk of terrorist attacks” throughout the region.
Citing recent widely-reported incidents in multiple European countries including France, Britain and Sweden, the State Department said it remained concerned about potential future terrorist attacks, reports said.
The incidents demonstrate that the Islamic State, Al Qaeda and their affiliates were still capable of planning and executing terrorist attacks in Europe, the Department said in a statement.
